In addition, welfare staff also have more sick days on average than other areas. Stress, mental ill health and intention to leave work are common. Furthermore, there is a national and international shortage of staff and especially a shortage of specialist nurses, e.g., elderly care and primary care. Strengthening the positive aspects will be central and creating good conditions for staff and thus hopefully also better care and welfare. A sustainable working life where the staff thrive, experience learning, meaning, well-being, good structural conditions, work-life balance and want to stay in the long term.\n\nIn one of the municipalities in this research project, they will introduce shortened working hours for registered nurses. A shortened working hours (reduced full-time standard by 3.25 hours\u002Fweek with maintained salary) during a one-year pilot project for nurses in elderly care and municipal home care. Current full-time standard 38.25 hours\u002Fweek. The municipality has initiated, decided and will implement the changes and the researchers are asked to follow the project.\n\nNurses from the municipality implementing reduced working hours and nurses from municipalities without changed working hours will be invited to participate in the study. The nurses will answer a questionnaire before and after the changes (6 and 12 months after the first data collection).\n\nThe overall aim of the research is to investigate registered nurses' experiences of their work environment, health, well-being and intention to quit\u002Fremain, as well as the quality of care, nurse turnover and sick leave. To study the relationship between shortening working hours or not, nurses' assessments of the work environment, intention to quit\u002Fremain, health, well-being and quality of care.\n\nThe main research questions are:\n\n* What are the relationships over time between working hours reduction or not, sociodemographic factors, nurse-rated work environment, intention to quit\u002Fremain, health, well-being and nurse-rated quality of care (follow-up after 12 months)?\n* What changes occur over time in nurses' assessments of work environment, intention to quit\u002Fremain, health, well-being and quality of care, and are there any differences compared to a comparison group\u002Fmunicipalities?",[66],"Registered Nurses",[68,69,70,71],"Shortened Working Hours","Elderly Care","Home Care","Work Life Balance","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-04-22",{"date":75,"type":76},"2026-04-28","ACTUAL",{"date":78,"type":62},"2026-04-25",{"date":80,"type":62},"2027-06-30",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
